I need someone that knows how to do a s13 tranny FLOOR tranny swap (SOHC)...

Ive tried for 2days now and im really frustrated, sun burnt, and exhausted.

How much will one of you guys charge me to come to my house and bolt up the tranny to the motor?

This is what im working with...

lmk.....thanks.
 
Level the car on 4 Jackstands.

The trany goes in @ almost 90* then spins as you lift.

Or if you want to be real easy. Lower the car some. get a good floor jack under the front cross member lower the cross member a bit and bolt the trans on then.
 
Just bolt the trans to the motor? Cmon, Lower your car down more (don't use that scissor jack, you'll die). Put it ontop of your chest and make that bitch go in.
 
if u want....lift ur car on all sides and put 2 tires under ur rear tires while having the front supported by 2 jack stands.....thats how my tranny was raised when my clutch was installed. and as for lifting the tranny....i used a hydraulic jack lol
 
your problus as to why the tranny wont go back in is cuz you need to drop the exhaust from the motor and jack the front of the motor up so you get the clearance do it and ul be happy and if you do what i say that will cost 20bucks but seriously do what i say do it iv dona millions of ka 5speed converions and swaps just do it
 
u dont need 2 drop the exhaust i did it with the exhaust on and i had plenty of room... all it is u gotta lift the tranny up let shaft rest in the hole where the motor is while holdin the tranny postion rotate the tranny that the bellhousing for the starter is postioned at 3 o'clock and at the same time push in and turn counter clockwise and bam.. the tranny should go right in thats how i did it took me 2 min 2 get the tranny from floor to engine..

side note:u need the car 2 be leveled in the air so u have good enough work space and for the tranny to go in smoothly

If your serious....Im ready to pay you.

Its just that I have 3 bad discs in my lower back and cant really do much lifting.

I can assist how ever I can...just need assistance bolting that sucker on. I can handle everything else.
 
I hadn't realized you had something wrong with your back. Nvm on the putting on your chest and lifting.
